good progress 
camry_hybrid.. thanks for the comments, there are minor scratches but they are hardly visible in the pics & the car did get involved in an accident back in 2007 because of which 1 headlight was broken and there was a bent on the bonnet & it has also been shared in this thread on earlier pages
driving in karachi without getting your car hit is almost impossible
zubair, congrats on the work done but the fuel pump costs insane.. i also had a similar problem with the petrol that was in the tank, it wasn't usable though and had to be drained.
sunny,. the low mileage is mainly due to constant shifting between lower gear, driving on steady rpms at higher gears will definitely result in better consumption
db23, waiting to see your car's pix 
rozzz... thanks for the input... any negative impact of tilting the air intake?
